This is an open and unfiltered diary-style journal
on the life of James Robert Smith.
This blog will contain sometimes graphic experiences (both beautiful and ugly),
sometimes stark insight, and all honest and factual documentation of dreams, diet, activity, and thoughts.

Mom made White Chicken Chili. I sprinkle on some Slaw and toast some Rosemary Bread to go with.

It’s Felix’s birthday and he’s having a “civilized rager” at his house. It’s a bit of a reunion from my perspective with Chris Remaley, Josiah, Bianca, Ken, Danny Rogers, and Aaron all under one roof. There’s a ping pong tournament, beers, Donkey Kong, karaoke, bon fire, and a “dance garage”. It’s nice talking to the people I know and catching a glimpse of my old band buddy/friend’s state of life. Towards the end of the night I get caught in nostalgic conversation between Danny and Aaron about 90’s Christian alternative music and growing up during this time.
